Abstract: After years of exploration, Central South University has comprehensively reformed and upgraded the curriculum in both horizontal and vertical integration, including optimizing and constructing a basic clinical core curriculum system with organ system integration as the main line, utilizing the advantages of comprehensive universities to further advance the cross-teaching reform of science, engineering, arts and medicine, strengthening pre-medical education with the goal of early exposure to medicine, promoting the reform of early contact clinical integrated teaching according to the concept of "early, multiple and repeated clinical practice", and accelerating the integration of clinical skills training courses with the support of clinical skills simulation teaching. After the integration, the faculty team has gradually matured and the teaching quality has been significantly improved, which has strengthened the students' medical thinking and overall literacy.
